PRESS RELEASE

-NULEGACY GOLD ENGAGES MARK BRADLEY AS EXPLORATION MANAGER -

For Immediate Release January 20, 2020

VANCOUVER – NuLegacy Gold Corporation (TSXV: NUG; OTCQB: NULG.F) is pleased to report

that Mr. Mark Bradley, a Senior Project/Chief Geologist for Barrick Gold Corporation supervising

major exploration teams and a Principal Geologist assessing new North American exploration

opportunities, has joined NuLegacy Gold as Nevada Exploration Manager.

Mark was the Cortez Project team leader during the discovery and definition of Barrick Gold’s multi-

million-ounce Goldrush deposit. For this he was a co -recipient of the prestigious Thayer Lindsley

Award for International Mineral Discovery from the Prospectors and Developers Association of

Canada. During the Goldrush discovery program he guided and managed the Cortez exploration team

of 20+ geologists and a couple hundred drilling, construction and logistical contracting personnel.

Mark worked with all the members of NuLegacy’s team of former Barrick Gold executives and

geologists during their tenures at Barrick Gold. He will be responsible for the administration and

execution of NuLegacy’s exploration programs so the geo-technical team can, with his input, focus

exclusively on interpretive geology and locating the down- dip source/s of the high-grade intercepts

drilled to date.

As well as developing the Spring 2020 exploration program Mark will prioritize streamlining the

permitting process to complete the expansion of the AV Plan of Operations (PoO) environmental

permit in anticipation of drilling the highly prospective Rift Anticline in the fall of 2020. Assays from

the Fall 2019 drilling are being processed for reporting mid-February.

About NuLegacy Gold Corporation: NuLegacy is a Nevada exploration company focused on discovering

Carlin-style gold deposits on its premier district scale 108 sq. km (42 sq. mile) Red Hill Property in the

prolific Cortez gold trend of Nevada.

highly prospective exploration targets that are being drilled this year.

type gold deposits (the Pipeline, Cortez Hills and Goldrush deposits) that are amongst Barrick Gold’s

largest, lowest cost and politically safest gold minesii.
